Chapter 43: Chakra’s Nature
n
n
nThe Anbu department works directly under the order of the Hokage!
nIt’s the last defense line of Konoha, and it’s the right solution to deal with any kind of situation!
nEvery member of the Anbu is at least a Chunin!
nAny Anbu member who is lower then a Chunin is an alternate member like Naito.
nThe official members are divided into four teams.
nEach team has a captain.
nthese captains need to be a high-ranked Ninja and they at least need to be at the same level as a Jonin.
nOne of these teams is the Hunter-nin Team.
nThe hunter-nin team is also divided into three squads, every squad has it’s own leader which is a high ranked ninja too!
nThis is the only team in the Anbu who has three leaders.
nThese three leaders, of course, need to be so strong, and will even have some strong forbidden skills, which makes them the strongest in the whole department!
nAnd above all the leaders is the Anbu commander.
nA complete set of an extremely perfect system.
nThere is 121 official member of the Anbu department.
nEach one of them is an elite ninja!
nAnbu dislikes letting anyone know their identities, and as such, most of Konoha’s citizens aren’t aware of who is and isn’t an Anbu.
nHowever, the most important function in Konoha is the Anbu department.
nNo matter whether it’s the roots, the Uchiha, or even the Sanju, the Anbu always comes first.
nThis is the Hokage’s function that controls everything in Konoha.
nAnbu protects the village from exceptional threats, conduct high-risk missions into enemy territory, and deal with extremely strong ninja. They are also responsible for carrying out assassinations, tracking, surveillance, and missions requiring specially trained ninja.
nEach Anbu has experienced much more training than ordinary ninjas.
nOf course, an Alternate member, such as Naito, is more relaxed, and he will have simple tasks.
nAfter he explained everything to Naito, the masked ninja handed him a mask and the gray uniform signed by a symbol that marks him as an alternate member.
nAlthough these ninjas are not completely cold-hearted people like the roots, they already have been under the mask for so many years so they basically do not have many affections.
nEven if it was a shocking situation to see a young man like Naito joining the Anbu, the masked guy didn’t seem even concerned.
nThe only thing he was thinking of is Konoha.
nAmong the Anbu, almost every member is like this.
nAfter receiving the mask and the uniform, Naito found out that the uniform was exactly tailored to his size.
nAfter shaking his head, Naito immediately wore his uniform and put on his mask.
nAfter he wore it, the feeling he had when he entered that he didn’t belong to this place disappeared.
nIt seems like it’s not that hard to integrate with the Anbu.
nIt’s indeed a strange feeling to hide behind the mask and look at the world.
nI already start questioning my identity, that’s what he thought of.
nHowever, without dazing out any longer, Naito quickly walked to his destination.
nThe first place he heads for was the equipment department.
n“Please give me a Chakra Induction Paper.”
nNaito was a little bit curious about his Chakra nature.
nAlthough, Naito knew that practicing Ninjutsu will be pointless in his situation and every Ninjutsu will need to be printed first and that waste a lot of time in the battle, but he thought it will be better if he knew what’s his chakra nature anyway.
nAfter all, in this world, there’s a lot of special Shinobis and Naito will have to be ready for any kind of situation.
nThe person in the room was a lot different from the guy in Konoha shop.
nHe listened to Naito carefully without saying any words as he walked in and out of the room silently.
n
n
nAnd finally, he passed a Chakra Induction Paper to Naito.
nNo questions, not even a single sentence.
nThis is the principle of the Anbu, doing tasks without asking any questions.
nAfter taking the Chakra Induction Paper, Naito left the store then injected his chakra into it.
nAt the next moment, the paper wrinkled and then split in two from the middle.
n“Wind and thunder… this is interesting.”
nAlthough he only had two kinds of chakra nature, Naito felt a little bit happy.
nCompared to Naruto who only had the wind at that time, it’s still way better.
nMoreover, the three other elements he didn’t have weren’t that important to him.
nOn the contrary, having Thunder including Wind is most effective.
nWithout forgetting about how strong the thunder users are, the Raikages for example.
nIn particular his Cloak of Lightning mode, this technique speeds up neural synapses reaction time and pushes physical prowess to the absolute limit allowing for tremendous raw speed.
nA strong technique.
nThis is the technique that Naito always wanted, but it’s so hard to learn.
nBut now Naito learned that he has the thunder element. if by any chance he got his hand on that scroll he will definitely try and practice this technique.
nHowever, even if he has it now, he will need to learn how to create and control thunder first.
nIn the original book, Sasuke managed to learn Chidori in just one month of time, Sasuke was a very talented fast learner Shinobi.
nThe thunder release can give you both strength and speed and that makes it a very effective element.
nAt the same time, Naito needed to think of a way to combine those two elements he has with his earthquake release.
nMoreover, the wind and thunder now become the Combined Nature Transformations for the earthquake release.
nHis ability to create shocks won’t be questioned anymore.
nBy using two or three basic nature transformations simultaneously, one can create a completely new elemental nature with unique properties that wouldn’t exist on its own.
nAnd there’s already a lot of Shinobis who combined two elements to create a new one in the history.
nWhich mean his bloodline won’t be a problem anymore.
nNaito now has all the conditions, his ability won’t be doubted again.
nNaito walked away from the equipment store.
nAlthough Naito wanted to customize his own practice equipment, he felt like he didn’t need it for now. The mountains felt better for the meanwhile.
nThere’s no need for him to customise anything now.
nafter walking for a short time, Naito arrived to the storage room.
nThere was an Anbu on the door guarding the place.
nAfter he saw Naito, he just opened the door for him.
nIt seems like anyone can fool them around and wear a mask to enter the place, but in reality, the department is well guarded.
nThere was a lot of people in the place which seemed like they are keeping an eye on everything happening in the department.
nIt’s almost impossible to sneak in here.
nHe walked into the storage room.
nThere was a large number of scrolls.
nOrderly divided into three sections.
nNinjutsu Section, Taijutsu Section, and Genjutsu Section.
